StoryPrompt brings customers, teams, and your community closer together through asynchronous video messaging. Start a face-to-face conversation, capture responses, and boost engagement by simply sharing a link. No meetings necessary.
Martine is professional and generous with her time. Gavin is always so well thought through and I find his thinking and unique ways superb. They are a power team. Bottom line this has wings. I haven’t been able to give Storyprompt the attention it deserves, but it is on my radar to start using this to build engagement within the communities I serve. My key goals are to build belonging, engagement, save time and get people out of zoom-flat out days also working with global teams. This is where Storyprompt works so well. Well done guys. Keep doing amazing things.
StoryPrompt has so many different functions that a company can use. HR, marketing, and so much more. I use it as a social impact platform to ask companies what they care about and the videos are priceless. StoryPrompt is incredible, easy, and Martine and Gavin are not only incredible developers, they are also incredible people. It's a holistic package. LOVE! Highly recommend!! Play around with it, see what amazing ways it can change your business.
As a business storytelling coach, Story Prompt has been an absolute game changer in helping my clients humanize their brands, share their stories and engage with each other seamlessly and effortlessly. As a founder, Story Prompt has proved to be an outstanding way to cut through the noise and connect with prospects and clients in a fresh, meaningful and very human way. Keep up the great work!!

Hey Product Hunt! 👋
I’m super excited to share the official launch of StoryPrompt – the video engagement platform that turns your customers, employees, and community into a powerful marketing engine.
Why I created StoryPrompt:
StoryPrompt was spun out of the challenges I faced at Sendible as a bootstrapped founder. For a period of 3 years, our growth stalled and I needed a way to stand out in a crowded, venture-backed space. 📉
I decided to position us as the smaller, more approachable alternative. So, I opened up my calendar every afternoon for office hours with customers.
What I didn’t expect was that in the process of having these calls, not only was I giving the Sendible brand a face in a sea of faceless competitors, but I was collecting valuable social proof and building a community of advocates.
As a result, we doubled our revenue, were listed as one of the top 3 social media management tools on G2, and were ultimately acquired in 2021. 🚀
However, despite its effectiveness, meeting customers face-to-face every day and collecting feedback in this way just isn’t scalable for most CEOs, let alone companies.
So, I built StoryPrompt to help other businesses engage (and delight) their customers face-to-face without the need for live calls, and then share that delight with the world to grow faster. 🙌
After walking away from Sendible, I opened up early access to StoryPrompt and now 8 months later, I’m thrilled to officially launch here on Product Hunt.
What our community loves about StoryPrompt:🔗 Meet face-to-face (without meetings) - Simply send a link and start a video conversation anywhere, anytime. 100% asynchronous. No apps to download.
🥰 Video testimonials without friction - Collect social proof from customers and employees without needing to find time for yet another Zoom call.
✂️ Automatic video production - Receive pro-style branded videos with titles, music, and even b-roll, ready to share on social or publish to your website. No editing needed.
🗓 Interactive lead-gen videos - Embed interactive buttons on the videos you record so that leads can book a demo, send a reply, or follow a link in new, delightful ways.
🤓 Built-in teleprompter - Help your customers, employees, and community feel confident on camera or, if they’re still camera shy, let them respond via audio only.
👋 Start a face-to-face community - Invite people to a space and deepen connections through asynchronous video discussions, either in groups or via DMs.
Use cases for StoryPrompt:
✅ Video Testimonials - Add proof to your buyer’s journey in seconds.

@hnshah@gavin_hammar Looks great! Our team has only started leveraging videos in our content marketing efforts, and we will definitely check your tool out.

That is a great idea, but I suppose that there should be an option to let people perceive an information not only through video but through text as well. These two ways of communication have their own advantages and disadvantages. The question is didn't you think about integrate some video-to-text module to extend your existing functionallity?
It's not about changing your video-to-video communication strategy but about simplifying user expirience. Or you suppose if you would add some auto-generated text it broke the entire concept?
The rest is awesome! Congrats on launch! 🔥
@stavrogyn great question. We are thinking of supporting text and we already have functionality in our API that can convert text to video with voiceovers. This should be coming to the front end soon.
@stavrogyn just to add to this… any audio or videos that are posted or collected are automatically transcribed and users can navigate to parts of the video or read what was said without the need to watch the entire clip.

@gavin_hammar ooh, that sounds awesome! Good luck, guys, that's gonna be cool 🔥
@paul_nurick Thanks so much. To answer your question, we don’t offer a trial because we have a free plan. Also we’re not going to rush you or pressure you into upgrading before you’re ready, so we only require your credit card details when you are ready to upgrade. Thanks for checking us out. 💛

Really exciting launch! Congrats!
Can I respond to video and audio content using text? Also, I see videos are automatically transcribed and captioned. Is this information sent to and stored on external servers or on StoryPrompt servers only?
@shammar Hi Stuart, we believe in face to face conversations so we don't offer text-based responses, only video and audio. There's massive value in humanising your brand and showing your face on camera, so I wouldn't overthink it too much, just go for it!
@shammar Hey Stuart, those transcriptions can be distributed to any server using our Zapier integration.

Looks great and congrats. When our team create content on your app can they share these on other platforms where we have presence? Thanks and good luck
@brett_levin Thanks Brett, yes once you have created content on StoryPrompt you can download the video and upload it onto any social media platform, or share the link (not recommended on social media). You can also embed the content on your website or as a thumbnail in your emails.
Hey Product Hunt Community 👏
We're often asked, "What's the difference between StoryPrompt and the other platforms on the market?"
And the truth is, a LOT.
I could discuss this topic for hours, mentioning each and every difference but for your sake (and mine - today's a busy day) I'll just mention the biggest difference.
We believe in video!
This means that we don't offer text-based forms. And we've chosen not to for a reason. Because hardly anyone ever responds to them.
With StoryPrompt, a business will send their client a video message, thanking them for their support and explaining why their opinion truly matters. The client will then record their response, also on video. So you have video-to-video communication. The client and the business are in the same position. And this really works! If you sent a text-based form it's as if you are telling the client, I'm not comfortable on video but I require that of you. This way you're equally vulnerable and the client feels respected.
I can also tell you all about how you can use StoryPrompt to engage with your community asynchronously, our simple UX, how you can capture UGC from any device, how you can automatically add your branding, music, and b-roll to your content, how you can embed CTA's onto your prompt, use templates etc etc.
But instead I recommend you just go and check out StoryPrompt for yourself.
Oh and as @gavin_hammar mentioned we have an awesome Product Hunt offer: We’re giving the Product Hunt community 50% off the price listed on our website when you use this link: https://www.storyprompt.com/?via... 🎁
